As experienced international movers, they are experts in all aspects of moving, including the advantages and disadvantages of the various shipping options, customs issues, ensuring your goods are correctly insured, and that they arrive at their destination on time and in good condition.

The shipping options open to you depend on the amount and type of goods you are looking to move, the speed at which you require them to be delivered, and the costs involved in doing so.

Your preferred method of shipping will affect the cost, for instance sending cargo via air is much faster, but also more expensive, than the equivalent route by sea. Our moving companies will be able to advise you on the best shipping method, which could be via airline, cargo ship.

Moving companies are specialists in moving difficult or precious items internationally. They are experienced in dealing with all kinds of household goods, including antiques and sentimental items, and will ensure your goods are packed properly to allow them to be moved safely.

Depending on the type of goods, and the way they need to be packed, the moving companies will advise you on the best method. You could send your goods using containers, wrap pallets, wooden crates or lift vans. Each method has different advantages, and the cost of each varies.

The amount, and type, of goods you send will also affect the cost, which is based on the type of packaging and the size and weight of your goods. If the goods are very bulky, or heavy, but are of relatively low value, for instance, they would be best sent by ship rather than air
